Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

When the radio station announced that the meeting on Saturday afternoon was cancelled, many people did not take it seriously, and it did not matter whether the meeting was held or not. However, some people wanted to know the reason, especially those in the forging workshop. Liu Haizhong could be said to be the pride of their forging workshop.

When they learned that Liu Haizhong had suffered a stroke, many people in the forging workshop felt sorry for him. To be honest, in their hearts, although Liu Haizhong liked to act like a leader, he was definitely a good master.

So the workshop director of the forging workshop brought several worker representatives to see Liu Haizhong after get off work. In the afternoon, several factory leaders including Li Huaide and Zhao Shanhe came to visit Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong had already woken up at this time. Due to excessive physical fatigue, high blood pressure, stimulation from his son, and frequent anger, Liu Haizhong's condition was not very good. Zhao Shanhe asked the doctor, and the possibility of paralysis was very high. Liu Haizhong's mouth was a little crooked and half of his face was stiff. I'm afraid that Liu Haizhong will have to spend the rest of his life in bed.

Liu Haizhong was excited when he saw Zhao Shanhe and Li Huaide on the bed, but he just kept saying "Aba Aba" and didn't know what to say. It can be seen that Liu Haizhong's language skills were also affected.

The doctor asked Zhao Shanhe and others to leave quickly. If the patient was too emotional, he might suffer a second stroke, which would be more serious.

Liu Guangtian arrived later than Zhao Shanhe. As the son of Liu Haizhong, no one at home informed him. He found out through Xu Damao. And it was Zhao Shanhe who asked Xu Damao to inform him. Liu Guangtian was also considered Zhao Shanhe's man.

Although Liu Guangtian was beaten by Liu Haizhong since he was a child and always wanted to escape from home, he eventually did it. He took Lao Cao as his master, married his master's daughter, and divided the property with Liu Haizhong to support his master in his old age. But they were father and son after all, and even if they were broken bones, they were still connected.

"Brother, you are back too," Liu Guangtian said hello to Liu Guangqi even though he didn't like him. He and Jiu Guangfu envied Liu Guangqi because he had the best food and never got beaten. When they were beaten, Liu Guangqi didn't try to stop them but just watched them get beaten. He didn't agree with Liu Guangqi as a brother. It was good enough to say hello.

"Well, you're here, Guangtian." Liu Guangqi gave a response.

"Mom, what happened? Dad has always been in good health and has never even been to the hospital. How could he suddenly collapse?" Liu Guangtian asked his second aunt.

"Your eldest brother lost his job, and your father couldn't stand the stimulation and collapsed due to anger. Alas," Second Aunt had not intended to say it. When you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, you follow the dog. She follows Liu Haizhong and doesn't like the second and third sons. But the doctor said that Liu Haizhong couldn't stand stimulation. If there was a quarrel now, it would be tantamount to Liu Haizhong's death warrant.

Liu Guangtian thought that his elder brother had just arrived. He thought of many reasons before he came, such as he couldn't stand the stimulation after being an official, he was fat and had high blood pressure, but he never thought of this reason.

As expected, Dad loved his eldest son Liu Guangqi the most. His elder brother didn't die, he just lost his job, and Dad was so shocked. If he had lost his job, Dad might just clap his hands and cheer. It was his fault that he didn't learn blacksmithing and couldn't win Dad's favor.

Originally Liu Guangtian was still nervous about Liu Haizhong, but after hearing from Xu Damao that his father was hospitalized, he ran here without stopping. He didn't even hear what Xu Damao said afterwards. Now he felt that his father deserved it.

He also knew that his father cared about his eldest brother Liu Guangqi the most. When his eldest brother got married, all the thirty-six legs were present, so even if it meant spending all the family's money, his own wedding would not only not include the three turns and one ring and the thirty-six legs, but even his appearance would not be missed.

Even though the eldest brother ran away that night, Liu Haizhong was so angry that he lay down for several days. He thought that Liu Haizhong's attitude towards the eldest brother would change, but he didn't expect that Liu Haizhong was still thinking about his beloved eldest son and wanted to leave all the family property to the eldest brother. From then on, he gave up.

Now, Liu Haizhong, who cared about his eldest son, let him lie on the bed. Liu Guangtian felt a little relieved, but what could he do after the relief? Looking at Liu Haizhong's crooked eyes and crooked mouth, he felt sympathy for his father again. Is it worth it to treat his eldest brother like that?

He wanted to ask, but took the words back when they were on the tip of his tongue. He was afraid that he would not get the answer he wanted. Even though his father was paralyzed in bed, it was his eldest brother Liu Guangqi who made him angry. His status was still not as good as his eldest brother in Liu Haizhong's heart. There was no need to humiliate himself.

"Dad, Mom, even though we've split up, and you've beaten me and disliked me since I was a kid, but at least you raised me and didn't let me starve to death. Now that Dad is like this, I will give you five dollars a month for your retirement."

Turning to Liu Guangqi, he said, "Brother, Dad said before that all the family property would be left to you. I have also thought it through in the past few years. Don't worry, I won't fight for it. Since you have taken the family property, Dad and Mom will be handed over to you. Dad and Mom have loved you the most since you were a child. You have made Dad so angry again. I hope you can take good care of them."

"I understand. I will take good care of dad and mom. I hope you will keep your word." Liu Guangqi has no brotherly love for his two younger brothers. It is better if they don't compete with him. Even if they do, he is not afraid.

There was movement among the bangs on the bed, and a hand was waving "Aba Aba". Everyone understood what it meant, that Liu Guangtian should leave quickly.

"Okay, since dad still doesn't like me, I'll leave first. I'll send the pension money on time every month." After saying that, Liu Guangtian left the ward.

Liu Guangtian felt extremely upset at this moment. He didn't expect that his elder brother had made his father so angry and still didn't like him. What did he and Liu Guangfu do? If he didn't like them, he shouldn't have given birth to them.

The clothes he wore since childhood were what his eldest brother left over, and the good meals were eaten by Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi. What else did the two brothers have except endless beatings? Nothing, no family property, and he didn't even come to the wedding.

Their experiences since childhood made them eager to leave this home. He got a quota in the factory through Zhao Shanhe. His father-in-law has always been good to him. Now he has a job, a wife and children, and his life is good, but he has always longed for the recognition of his parents.

On the way here this time, he thought a lot, and even thought about taking care of Liu Haizhong in his old age. He knew his eldest brother and thought that his eldest brother probably wouldn't come back. He didn't expect that it was his eldest brother who was angry. Even so, he still couldn't get Liu Haizhong's recognition, and he even didn't want to see him. What did he do wrong?

The same is probably true for the third brother, Liu Guangfu. The two brothers had similar experiences and both wanted to escape from home. As soon as the policy came about, the third brother went to the countryside. I guess Liu Guangfu is thinking the same as him now and also wants to gain his parents' recognition. I'm afraid that they will never recognize them until Liu Haizhong dies. They are redundant.

He lacked the love of his parents since childhood, and now he has children. He is trying his best to give his children fatherly love, so that his children will not end up like him. Thinking of his children, Liu Guangtian quickened his pace to return home.
